Tips and Tools
I'm repeating some of the tips and tools from last week, in case you missed them!
Backing Up Documents from the Tablet to OneDrive
This video will show you how to save files in OneDrive. Doing this will save space on the tablet, ensure that students don't lose their work if something happens to the tablet, and allows them access to their files during the summer, after tablets are collected.
If you need any assistance with this, please see Ms. Martin or Ms. Morgan.
Jog Nog
Need the Quick Start Guide for Teachers or Students? Click the link to download them both in PDF form. Need help using JogNog? Send me an email and tell me when you'd like me to come, and I'll be there!
Want More Review Resources?
Check out this Blendspace lesson on various EOY Review Resources created by my fellow PLEF, Tamika Davis. If you have any resources you use, share them with me, and will gladly add them to the lesson!
Words of Wisdom
Creating Change
This week's Words of Wisdom come from Sir Ken Robinson. If you've never heard his talks (he's been featured in Ted Talks several times), you really should take a few minutes to listen. The link below is an animated version of one of his best.
We may be winding down for the school year, but it's never too late for creativity!
